Goofs
We see Vala completely engulfed by flames, head to toe, for several seconds. In the next shot, Daniel caresses her mane of raven hair (which barely looks like it has split ends, let alone frizzy or, as would be the case, burnt off).

Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell:
Well, that figures. Room full of gold and jewels, and Dr. Daniel Jackson finds the one book.

This episode is by far one the best I have seen. From start to finish this episode had me glued to the tube, as some would say. With the comic bickering between Daniel and Vala to the dramatic, heart racing ending - it left behind quite a cliffhanger and jaw dropping ending for me. But with this season out on DVD you don't have to wait a week to find out what happens if you own it. Well you could...why would you do that? In my eye, it brought Jackson's and Vala's character to a whole new level. This episode is a must watch for a Stargate fan or even if you don't really watch the show you'll still appreciate how the story unfolds. An excellent start for the season!
